How many parents on here have ever had one of their kids say "Thanks for putting up with all my shit for all those years."

Answers on a postcard.



*wtf is a postcard?

My 15 year old only seems to speak to me to take the piss out of me these days. Beginning to understand why my dad hasn’t spoken in about 30 years now. Not worth the grief!

I lost my dad when I was 13 so he would have only known me as a kid with no sense of such things. My mom, on the other hand, got plenty of love, time and holidays from all 4 of her sons, and I visited her a good 300 days a year through her last six or seven years in a nursing home. The unusual side effect of that is that the carers and nurses noticed I was a loving son, and a few of them apparently extrapolated from that that I might be a good partner. I turned down the offers of dates whilst mom was alive, as i was concerned about the clash of interests. Now though, the manager of the home has asked me out, over a year since mom has passed. I have said yes this time, even though she is 8 years younger as she is easy to get along with, and I think we can be supportive of each other even if we never get it on.

Yeah when I was dating before I got with the mrs kids were a no no for me. I wouldn't pursue it if she had kids.

It had always been a dealbreaker for me too but I just really liked the woman and wanted to see if I could make it work.

Turns out this was a bullet dodged, I found out she had set up a profile on Bumble on Saturday when we were still trying to make it work after an argument on Friday. She said it was done in anger because I went out with my mates to watch the Liverpool match, absolute crank.

Was on the Tube home last night, about half ten. This couple had a quick goodbye kiss on the platform (I only watched a bit), all seemed very nice. She got on the train, he went another way. To the neutral observer all seemed to have gone quite well.

Then she called her mate telling her how three of his cards had been declined, how awkward it all was and how in the end she paid for it all and he was promising her he’d sort it when he was getting paid in a couple of days.

If I was a betting man I’d predict it won’t go too much further. And secondly, glad to not be in that world anymore!

Safe to say I've been going through it since this post  ;D

Ended up shagging her for a while longer but I've met somebody else (not through any dating apps which was nice) but found out I had chlamydia  :butt

Ended up telling this ex I got it off her and she went batshit and blocked me.

Last night, I applied for a job on LinkedIn with a software company I had never previously heard of.   During the application where I submitted my CV and stuff, it asked the question "Do you know what we do here at ****"

So I quickly googled them  They develop a dating app that is for,  let's just say people with very... VERY alternative lifestyles.

So I answered "Yes, I want the job even more now! :) "

To be fair the job description is great and looks like a pretty cool outfit to work for.

Given the male/female split on RAWK and in this thread it’s probably inevitable that most of the tales of woe (and everything else) will be centred around bad experiences men have had from women. I’m certain in real life, it’s probably far worse the other way, but none of you  ladies are sharing your bad experiences on here.
